Steps:
- Cook the chopped onions, garlic and herbs in the butter until soft. Add the beef jus and boil to reduce by half. Leave to cool and allow to set in fridge.
- Mince the meat through a medium cutter, then place into the bowl of a food mixer and beat slowly adding salt and pepper to taste. The salt will thicken the meat, giving a gelatinous texture. Add the egg and the reduced cooled onion mixture. Chill for 2-3 hours till firm.
- Squeeze any excess water from the caul and cut into 8inch squares. Spoon about 3 oz of the faggot mix into the centre of each square and wrap and turn the caul around the meat to form firm ball shapes.
- When you are ready to cook he faggots, warm the beef stock. Fry the faggots in the dripping until brown on all sides, then place them in the stock and simmer very gently for 12-15 mins until just starting to firm up. Remove the pan from the heat and leave to rest.
- The faggots can now be allowed to cool, left in the cooking liquor and chilled. The liquor will set like a jelly and the faggots can be kept in the fridge for up to a week.
- When you want to serve the faggots, warm them gently in the jelly for 15-20 minutes To serve lift from liquor and top with onion gravy.

WELSH FAGGOTS
I can still remember, when I was six or seven years old, travelling down to Ponterdawe in South Wales for the weekend to see my Grandmother. We would arrive just in time for lunch on a Saturday. She had a Bullmastiff dog called Gellert. The problem was she had always fed him titbits from the table - a big mistake as this causes the dog to drool all the time. In those days all little boys used to wear shorts! Lunch would always be home made faggots with peas, all smothered in Bovril gravy with slabs of fresh white bread, thick with real butter. Of course, Gellert would take up station under the table, usually around my legs . . . but the faggots were great. This is the recipe for Faggots from back then, real comfort food, which can be enjoyed just as much today as it was then . . . and it is a really easy, low budget meal to prepare. You will either need a mincer or an electric mixer to do the preparation. I always cook my faggots ahead and then warm them up when I wish to eat them. This allows the flavours to intensify and makes the faggots richer.
